Neighborhood Review

Key Words:

Wooded Retreat, Community Feel, Trail Access

Homestead Valley is a peaceful, wooded neighborhood tucked against the Marin Headlands and Mount Tamalpais State Park. It’s one of Mill Valley’s most beloved areas for those looking for a blend of community spirit and easy access to nature. The streets here wind through forested hills and are lined with eclectic homes - ranging from charming mid-century cottages to larger custom builds, many with expansive views of the surrounding open space. A standout feature of Homestead Valley is its access to trails and outdoor recreation. Residents are steps away from the Homestead Valley Land Trust open spaces, with countless hiking and biking trails that weave into the Golden Gate National Recreation Area and Mount Tamalpais. Despite the rural feel, you're still close to the amenities of downtown Mill Valley, and just a short drive to shops, schools, and Highway 1. The Homestead Valley Community Center serves as a local hub with a pool, events, and classes, reinforcing the area's small-town, neighborly charm. The roads here are narrow and shaded by trees, contributing to the area’s peaceful, tucked-away character.
